Abstract Seascape Oil Painting, Tropical Waters, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 11x14x1.5" SOLD
Continuing on my tropical journey to the Florida Keys. Today's post is my impressions of the sea off the coast of southern Florida.
It is hard to find more fun (in the studio), than to dig into a big pile of paint, with your knife, and just go to town. Adding and subtracting values and hues........puts me in the zone every time.
As much as I love creating all this yummy texture, I can only do it for a few days, before I start to crave a little structure and strong composition. Each day I work on this coral reef series, I get a little less abstract and and little more impressionist.

Daily Painting, Starfish Oil Painting, Coastal Wall Decor, Beach House Artwork, Small Oil Painting,
Last week I was walking the beach near our home in Florida. I came across this starfish in the surf.
I did not want to disturb the creature, so I quickly snapped a photo and left it alone.
Perfect for your beach house!

Small Oil Seascape, Palette Knife Painting, Daily Painting Small Oil Painting, 6x8" Beach Scene
I may have left Florida behind, bu it is still on my mind. I look forward to spending time on the beach this winter.
I have several seascapes in my new Asheville home........it keeps me from getting homesick! ACTUALLY, I love it here in the mountains. I now feel I have the best of both worlds. Mountains in the spring, summer and fall, and the beach in the winter. Looking forward to being a "snow bird".
Thanks for visiting today.

This piece was painted, from my memories of days on the beach, the air full of salt spray.
I painted with a palette knife, because, you all know how much I admire texture in my work.

Small Seascape with Sunrise Painting, Textured Palette Knife Art, 6x8" Oil Seascape SOLD
Today I am posting one of my favorite subjects, the beach!
In my opinion, one of the best reasons to live in Florida, is to be able to grab a cup of coffee, and head for the beach to see the sunrise.
The beach is usually empty....maybe I will see a lone fisherman. For the most part, only the birds are there to keep you company. It is so serene and calming. The perfect way to start your day. I cannot think of a better way to spend an early morning hour.
I hope you have a wonderful day today!

Seascape Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Wave Painting, "Wall of Water" 16x20x.75" Oil SOLD
Lately, I have been painting seascapes. I always love painting and viewing seascapes. It's almost as soothing to me as a trip to the beach.
Of course, the first step for me IS a trip to the beach. I pick a day with my trusty camera and head for the sand. I count myself lucky if I get a few interesting shots.
For this painting, I used images from a trip to Barbados.

Small Seascape Sunset Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" impasto painting
I don't know how you start your days, but, whenever possible, I love to grab my camera and a cup of coffee and head to the beach to watch the sun come up. With a morning like that, it is impossible to have a bad day!
I like texture in my art and one of my favorite tricks, is to take a failed painting, leave the texture and use the panel again. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
Many artists use their canvases more than once, but convential wisdom is you must sand it down. I
sometimes do that too, but if I want to do a little expressionism, I say, why destroy all that lovely texture?
Thanks for reading my blog today.

Small Seascape, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, "Beach Music" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil
Living close to the sea, it is no surprise that I paint a lot of seascapes. The sea and mountains have one thing in common....they never look the same from day to day or even minute to minute. Fascinating and beautiful!
Life gets busy and sometimes I don't visit the beach for months at a time. When I finally get there, it is like visiting an old friend. I always vow to get back more often.
